In the year 2021, mankind was defeated by Gastrea, a parasitical virus, and is forced to live within a wall made of Baranuim monoliths, a metal that is able to subdue Gastrea. Soon, the "Cursed Children", children born infected with the Gastrea virus who are able to control them which gives them superhuman abilities, was discovered. Due to the Gastrea virus' intervention, the Cursed Children could only be female. Civil Securities are formed to specialize fighting against Gastrea, operating with the pair of an Initiator, who are cursed children, and a Promoter, serving to lead the cursed children. Ten years after the war, RentarÅ Satomi, a high school student who is also a Promoter in his childhood friend Kisara TendÅ's TendÅ Civil Security, along with his Initator Enju Aihara, receives a secret mission to prevent the Tokyo Area's destruction.PV1

I was excited when they announced that Black Bullet will be animated. I was so happy that it made my manga-reading time at that time more worthwhile. Anywho, from the special chapter about the anime announcement in the manga, there'll be some new characters in the anime that have yet to appear in the manga. The LN's definitely way ahead of the manga so those characters may have already appeared. Then again, I'm too lazy to read LN's. Also, the MCs' anime art style is somewhat a lot different from the manga. They still look good though. Looking forward to this one definitely.

                        Because the intro completely betrayed my expectations! ~sniff~
I was really expecting the series to continue that tone, but the second the opening broke out... My jaw dropped...
So I will now nitpick everything that bugged me, ignoring individual characters, out of annoyance and a broken heart.
first episode
I will admit, some of the art in the series I find interesting, like the overview of the city at the end of the first episode, and a couple of the backgrounds.

                        Episode 1 was fantastic. Episode 2 is so far away that I'm gonna be bored waiting for it. I'll get more excited for sure when they reach the part that the manga hasn't covered what the LN already has. Also, that Enju~ <3 
I understand where you're coming from, but what do you expect from the beginning may I ask? Scratch that, I shouldn't ask such a thing. And as for your little rant, I do understand that some parts are definitely questionable especially since this is just the first episode. As much as I want to counter-argue against your rant, I'll learn to keep my jimmies unrustled since I've already read the manga of this beforehand so I understand your confusion assuming that you haven't read either the LN or the manga.

                        [11:40:30] Anton: Black Bullet seems promising
[11:41:08] Anton: It had a bunch of famous VA like Kiritsugu from Zero, Yukine from Noragami, and Hanekawa
[11:41:22] Anton: and it has lolis eating bread
This is mid-top tier. The only good thing is the loli. And why didn't he shot the masked Kiritsugu?

                        Well I read the manga and it was promising but the main protagonist is not as powerful as i imagined with the first boss being easily beaten what kind of story do you guys think will develop

My heighten expectations and desire met with something I need a bit of patients to watch, caused a huge upset for me... Writing this out, I see that, I still stand by my previous stated opinions, but expecting everything to be "top quality" (for example Blood+) and becoming upset and bitter over it not being, is childish. I have no intention of taking away others enjoyment, I just wanted to vent those feelings.
I can guess a few of the counter argument...
Spoiler:
If you want to spoil or pm me the answers your holding back on, go ahead, I expect this series to be 13 episodes, so I assume it will gloss over the beginning of the series main story, and as long as it's not the end of the VN.

Just finished watching episode one. I thought it was good. Definitely added to my watch list.[size=28][color=#9D0A0A]ENJU-CHAN IS INDEED A QUALITY RORI. BEST RORI SO FAR.[/color]

As usual, MainCharacter-kun is a faggot with pleb taste. The black haired girl was good too but how could he not want such a glorious loli?

I could say that a few (if not some) of your guesses are spot on. Not gonna say which one because I am that mean, as well as some of which are pretty obvious for some people. And I wouldn't want to correct you on some of your guesses because it'll ruin the surprises that'll come ahead as the story goes on. Not only that, there'd be a possibility where my corrections may be wrong too because the manga covered only a few of what the LN has (I'm lazy to read walls of text so bite me). So it might be wise to not spoil it for now.
Also, you can't just expect things you wanted from the first episode. Some animes did fulfill our expectations from the first episode and then things just went downhill a few to some episodes later. Heck, maybe even during the last episode in certain cases. Because as you know, expectations≠reality generally. Of course, being a guy who wants to avoid arguments, I'll stay calm and see how things progress. The LN is still ongoing though, so there might be an alternate ending assuming your guess about the show having 13 episodes is true.

                        Can't really dislike this anime thus far, covered it's points really quickly, goodish premise with plenty to work with and even if the anime flops I'll end up picking up the manga anyways. Plus Enju is smoking.

                        I watched the first episode recently and I have to say this looks interesting. I love Enju Aihara, she is just too adorable for her own good! Will add this to my list of series to keep up with.

                        I can't take this series seriously to how they're trying so had to justify the need that all themz parasite busting people are women. And that they're all lolis from the looks of it, until fully grown one is shown. 
Other than that, this show is another shounen filler of the season. Not that i'm complaining since the animation quality is pretty up there.

Well she's not really a yandere, but she's definitely got a good smile running for her.
Good episode, pretty mixed feelings about Hiruko but they seem to be upfront about him which I appreciate.

                        I don't know about the anime, but the light novel was one of the most nail biting stories I've ever read. Every single book it released had battles and circumstances so grim and epic that it feels like THE Final Battle every single time.
So it's way too early to scrutinize its flaws right now. Things will scale very quickly.
